PS4 + PS Vita Bundle Revealed

Amazon lists unannounced "Ultimate Player Edition."

One of Sony's E3 2014 surprises may have just been spoiled. The often-leaky Amazon France has posted a product page (via IGN) for a special PlayStation 4/PlayStation Vita "Ultimate Player Edition" bundle. It's listed for €579, or about $790. According to the listing, it will go on sale July 4.

We were not able to find the same product page on Amazon's North American website. In Europe, the PS4 currently sells for €399.99 ($540) and the PlayStation Vita costs €179.99 ($245), meaning the bundle isn't offering much in the way of savings. However, it also could include some pack-in goodies, and we've reached out to Sony for comment. Sucker Punch's PS4-exclusive action game Infamous: Second Son is shown on the box.

Wow, this looks really nice. I was waiting for such a bundle. Thought it was going to come out until there was a lighter version of PS 4 (slim), but who knows, maybe this is a good chance to get the bundle these holidays.

This should be the final nail in the coffin for Nintendo's Wii U. Sony now offers the second screen experience with the PSvita and Playstation 4 combo. Sony needs to provide a game that really takes advantage of this PS4/PSvita

<< LINK REMOVED >> Apples and Oranges comparison. I have a PS4 and Vita already, but seriously doubt many people would be enticed by this combo rather than just pick them up separately or skip out on the Vita entirely. Sony has tried to invigorate Vita sales since launch without the least bit of success and this won't do anything to change that situation.

Also, there's a high likelihood that Nintendo fans interested in a WiiU already have a 3DS, so there's no need for Nintendo to bundle them together.

I can deal with a $560 price for both. The only problem is that I don't need a 2nd PS4 right now. I'd rather wait for a PS4 Slim to be announced and released. Now,, if Sony wants to offer a PSVita slim for $160 with Borderlands 2 included, I'll gladly open my wallet for that. I like to have back up systems. I have 2 XBox 360, 2 PS3, 2 3DS, etc.., etc..

$560-600 seems like a legit price range for the US. Assuming you get just the platforms and the game(s). I say games because having Borderlands 2 in the box for both systems would sell the idea of taking your gaming on the road with the cross-save feature. They might as well throw in a year of PS Plus as well.

<< LINK REMOVED >> $560 in the U.S. is a good deal. They need to include a PS4 & PSVita Digital game in the bundle and they are golden. Those systems will sell. Smart move by Sony if this deal gets announced at the E3.

<< LINK REMOVED >><< LINK REMOVED >> Yes, that's what it does. It "works" on the whole but for games like Battlefield it's a little inconvenient. Why anyone is remote playing Battlefield outside of testing it out is beyond me though.

Sony should've had this bundle at the PS4's launch, before millions of people bought it. I was interested in it back then. I didn't want a Vita till the PS4 came out. But now the hype has diminished about the remote play feature and I don't want it anymore (plus I already own a PS4). Also, for the amount of money you're spending, they should've shaved off a few more dollars. Because you're gonna wanna get a game or two with it (on top of the pack-in game(s).

<< LINK REMOVED >> Meh, FPSs are one of the few genres that doesn't translate well to the Vita, especially the modern ones since the Vita is missing two legitimate shoulder buttons and the use of L3/R3(rear touch pad just doesn't cut it.). I'm no fan of RTS games, but I can imagine they would work wonders with the touch screen/pad.

<< LINK REMOVED >> You're missing out, the Vita is pretty solid. While it doesn't feel like Sony is showcasing the Vita by any means, it also doesn't feel like an unwanted device that's full of shovelware like the PSP.

Yeah, no thanks. I already have a ps4 but even if I didn't I wouldn't touch this bundle. Guaranteed this will be the vita slim(crappier screen) and the vita is only $199(where I am anyways, canada, sask) so it doesn't make sense to spend that much in a bundle package for that.

<< LINK REMOVED >>Ps4 $399.99 + PS vita $199.99 = $599~ . US ad states the bunle with BL 2 is $560. That's a savings of $40 plus you get Borderlands 2. It's 40$ and a great game. I've been waiting to get the ps4/vita but now that this bundle is coming out I will be buying it. There are probably other people with the same mindset as me. I see this as being a popular bundle for Sony.

Also I hope you realize Australia's prices are waaaaay overpriced compared to Canada/USA.

Was waiting for this bundle to finally pick up a ps4. Though I was hoping for a little bit cheaper. Already played Borderlands 2 to death and I'm only mildly interested in Infamous. Maybe they'll offer different bundles but I probably shouldn't hold my breath on that one.
